ATCAS #266 - Pun


If you know me, you know I LOVE puns so was so enthused to make a card for the latest Addicted to CAS Challenge #266 Puns.


I used the Lawn Fawn Simply Celebrate sets which are chock full of puns.  "Lettuce party," "turnip the beet"--my god, they're so cute! 

Of special note, I used Lawn Fawn Puffy Cloud Borders for the soil.  Neat!

ATSM #475 - Diecuts and/or Stencils


I thought I would go all out for the latest Addicted to Stamps & More Diecuts and/or Stencils Challenge.  

The stitching on this took me maybe 20-30 minutes with curious cats so not too bad. I used some fancy floss which also added to the time, especially that gold.  #worthit

Carefree Birthday


Over the weekend, I pulled out the NIP Lawn Fawn Whoosh, Kites set fully intending to create a cute scene.  The only part I used for this card, however, was the sentiment!  LOL.

Instead, I was distracted by the adorable Stitched Kite dies which I paired with LF Make Me Smile Faces and You Autumn Know mouse.  The kite bows are from Honey Bee Winter Houses because I overlooked the bows that were part of the kite set.  I didn't see them until I was putting the dies away.  D'oh!

Beach Bear


I have a sensitivity to sunlight so beach time is a rarity for me but under an umbrella with tons of sunscreen and clothing on, you just might find me there.





I was inspired by the sunset and refreshing drink as well as the stripes in the sunset pic in the Inkspirational #322 Mood Board. I'm also entering Seize the Birthday #289 with optional Cute Critters topping.
